Botox is a form of the protein called botulinum toxin produced by the Clostridium botulinum bacterium and is used to temporarily prevent muscle contractions. It has a wide range of applications in aesthetic and medical fields. Aesthetically, it is often used to reduce fine wrinkles and lines on the face. Fine lines and wrinkles that occur in areas such as around the eyes, on the forehead, and between the eyebrows can be significantly reduced with Botox injections.
The medical uses of Botox are also quite diverse. For example, it can be used in the treatment of excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), to relieve migraine pain, and even in the treatment of certain muscle spasms. Botox applications can also be effective in dental and jaw-related issues such as teeth grinding (bruxism). Thus, Botox can be preferred not only for aesthetic concerns but also for functional and medical treatments that enhance quality of life.
